Need your help with color decision

[afrotl]

Ok I am in the process of looking for a car. I am contemplating on what color to pick i have narrowed it down to Black, Silver or Blue.
What do you guys think will be a good color to pick?

+1, But I also like the pearl white on those

I actually see ALL three colours all over the place, so I wouldn't recommend any. :thumbsup: on the white though, especially with blacked out windows.

I had a White Integra 4 door and it was nice but I think I want something different this time around but I will keep the Whit ein mind thanks for the suggestion.

EL only looks good in Black and White.

1) Black looks classy

2) You will not find the same white on a Civic.

Avoid all other colors because Civic has them.

ya the white pearl would be my second pick, mo_money you may see all 3 colors everywhere but personally ive only seen the black ones the most, then the pearl whites, and rarely any blues

hottest color ever

Black looks the best (imo) clean, but you need to keep it clean and it gets dirty the easiest. It also shows swirl marks very easily so you have to be very nice to your paint. If this is a problem, get silver because silver hides everything extremely well. The blue will be similar to the black for taking care of, but it wont show dirt/scratches quite as easy.

Go black if your OK with taking care of it.

Carl... you need black!!!!! When I had my TL all you talked about was having a black car

Black FTW :thumbsup:

IMO... silver is so plain... and I don't like blue because well... I just don't. If pearl white was in your list, I would say it would be a good second choice.

Pearl white is an awesome colour.. Looks great on RSX-S and EL's... Silver is another great colour. I also love my blue. Blake is way overdone, don't get me wrong, it's a great colour, but it's everywhere.

First choice: Pearl White
Second Choice: Silver

Blake? Who's Blake?

I used to hate white.... that was years ago. And now I just love it when you have it on the right car. Supa clean. Silver stays clean, or at least looks clean the longest. I've owned a number of black vehicles.... "black cars look better in the shade" you all know the song.... and it's true.... best colour ever when you have it clean with a pro polish..... one of the worst colours to try to keep looking good. Unless you're a great detailer and know your waxes and polishes, be prepared to look at some major swirl marks in a few years.

Wow now I am more confused than I started you all had great points ...oh my what to do.
Hrd2plz....I know I wanted a black car for the longest time but I do not know if I can keep up with the cleaning of it though. My fiance's car is black so I might want another color now.
So it looks like:
1. white
2. silver
3. blue
4. maybe black if I: am willing to learn how to polish and wax it.
